What was the thought process behind having Bill Clinton — who reportedly missed and/or bypassed more than one opportunity to kill Osama bin Laden — narrate a campaign ad suggesting Mitt Romney would not have given SEAL Team Six the order to kill the terrorist?

Is your campaign staff giving any consideration to using Mr. Clinton to impugn Mr. Romney’s marital fidelity? How about Reverend Wright to subtly raise suspicions about Mr. Romney’s faith? Or Tony Rezko to attack the governor’s business dealings?
